SS Cambodge
She was an ocean liner built for the Messageries Maritimes in Dunkirk in northern France and along with two sister ships, she sailed her first voyage in 1953. She mainly provided passenger service between France, the Middle East, Southeast Asia, and Japan.

Following the 1970s, she was acquired by a Greek company and converted into a cruise ship, the famous Stella Solaris. Most of her working life was spent as a cruise ship in the Aegean Sea and she also made frequent transatlantic voyages to South America and the Caribbean Sea.She quickly became one of the more popular cruise vessels of the time. An unusual 2003-2004 economic crisis in the cruise ship sector caused many older vessels, such as Stella Solaris, to be sold for scrap. After 54 years of service, she was retired in December 2003 and broken up in Alang.

looks good. a few little points though:
- the funnels look a bit flat for some reason. could you experiment with the shading a bit (more or less 'round' shading)?
- no steampipes and flutes on the funnels? they look underdetailed to me....
